I am honored to be the official dessert bringer to all family gatherings.  This past Christmas I had let time get away from me and I needed something super fabulous and I needed it super fast.

Having a pan of my Lazy Day Brownies left from the homemade gifts we give out each year, I decided to create a fabulous trifle inspired by one of Chad’s favorite candies.
